This Webinar is based on core concepts from his latest book No-Drama Discipline. It highlights the link between a child’s neurological development and the way parents may react to misbehavior. It will provide both counselors and parents an effective, compassionate roadmap for dealing with tantrums, tensions, and tears—without causing a scene.

By defining the true meaning of the “D” word (to instruct, not to shout or reprimand), Dr. Siegel will explain how parents and counselors can reach children, redirect emotions, and turn a children’s meltdowns into teachable moments. By doing so, the cycle of negative behavior (and punishment) is essentially brought to a halt, as problem solving becomes a win/win situation. The Webinar is open to mental health professionals working with parents and children as well as parents themselves.

Length: 90 Minutes

Learning Objectives:

Describe the true meaning of the “d” word –“discipline” in working with parents
Summarize effective methods for parents and counselors dealing with tantrums
List the functions of the prefrontal cortex
Summarize how direct experience in children and adults changes the brain (neuroplasticity)
